This is Melanie’s The Queen and Her Court quilt and it is a pattern by A Wing and a Prayer Designs. This is a King size quilt so I custom quilted the borders and did a pantograph in the center. The pantograph is called Come Dance with Me and I used a medium brown So Fine thread for all the quilting. The outer border was quilted with piano keys, I SID on the flange and the did a fun ‘Onions and Garlic” design on the inner pink border.
The quilting shows up beautifully on the beige Stonehenge backing.
So last night we has some aurora activity so I was out taking pictures. I had a ‘Ah Ha” moment with my frustration with the only street light in our neighbourhood that really interferes with my photography. I think I finally made peace with it last night when I changed my white balance settings and voila, the red light on the snow was defused to a tolerable level!
I really like these shots with my snow art under the aurora!
Your Snow Swoon pics with the Northern Lights are amazing, Kathy!!
